Our Award-Winning Service
Professional Photography &
Aerial Photography
Your home only gets one shot at a great first impression when potential buyers view it on the internet. While many agents are now using their cell phones or inexpensive small cameras to take digital photos of homes causing dark, blurry, and sometimes the “fishbowl” effect, The Via Domus Team takes their own professional photographs having total control on how your home’s image is portrayed and giving a great first impression when seen by potential buyers. Brenda has many years of experience as a photographer, taking wedding photos, personal portraits, and photos of homes. We also offer stunning aerial drone photography to our clients free as part of the complete photography package! Homes with lack luster photos brings lack luster results.
In today’s real estate market, the most important aspect to selling your home is the presence and image your home has on the internet. The Via Domus Team offers all our clients enhanced listing packages on Raveis.com, full profile listings on Realtor.com, Zillow and Trulia, along with many other major real estate web sites. Your home is also displayed on social media sites such as Facebook, Instagram and Twitter, and a custom walk—through video on YouTube. On the day your home goes active on the market, we send you a link to view your homes’ listing so you can see your photos, description, and home facts. It is amazing how many homeowners never viewed their homes’ listing and had no idea just how poor an impression their home made on potential buyers. Our clients also receive weekly reports showing how their homes’ listing is performing on the internet.

The Via Domus Team creates a full motion, walk through video of your home giving potential buyers the feeling they have already walk through your home prior to their in-person viewing. The video is filmed the way a buyer would enter your home and walk through it. It is not the still photos of rooms in the home, zooming in and out of the corners. Your homes video is placed on YouTube and other social media sites, along with the MLS and other real estate sites.
Custom Walk Through Videos
The Via Domus Team are not only animal lovers, but we also understand that selling your home can be a stressful experience, not only for you, but also for the family pets. They are part of the family and can feel stressed and confused during the process, with strangers coming and going through their home. We, as The Via Domus Team, go out of our way to protect and work around the furry loved ones.

It’s not just the listing price as to why a home does not sell…there are many other factors involved some agents do not consider!
► Agent was not a tech savvy agent and familiar with the latest, up-to-date internet and social media trends.
► Agent did not know the local market and marketing trends for the area.
► Lack of professional quality photos, incomplete MLS listing with no room sizes, a lack luster description, and incorrect facts about the home.
► Lack of communication from the agent to the client, including showing and open house feedbacks.
► Ineffective marketing - the old, traditional ways of selling a home some agents still use are just no longer effective with today’s buyers
► Poor ratio of internet viewings to actual showings on seller’s home.
► Location of the subject property versus the competitive home locations in the town.
► Battling high competition and/or poor market conditions in your town.
► The condition of the home’s exterior, interior, yard and curb appeal.

”A letter came in the mail from Brenda and Michael, it was so well composed and I was impressed. I called and spoke to Brenda and I liked her approach so much that we met and we signed the contract. They were not pushy at all and all through they were honest and focused. Brenda and Michael are thoroughbreds, great agents! They treated us with due respect and are perfect professionals. We were extremely pleased with Brenda and Michael and highly recommend them to anyone wanting to sell a home!”
